Disordered Love Quotes

“Do not let your peace depend on the words of men. Their thinking well or badly of you does not make you different from what you are. Where are true peace and glory? Are they not in Me? He who neither cares to please men nor fears to displease them will enjoy great peace, for all unrest and distraction of the senses arise out of disorderly love and vain fear.”
― Thomas à Kempis, The Imitation of Christ

“The man who is ruled by desire and enslaved to pleasure will make the one he loves as pleasing to himself as possible; and to a sick man anything which does not resist him is pleasant”
― Plato, Phaedrus/Lysis
